Take action

Make your voice heard. Call on the UK government to step up to the plate and put solutions in place that we know can save lives. Together, we can end world hunger.

Be part of a movement to end hunger for good.

Actions like signing a petition or writing to your MP might seem small. But they’re essential to show our elected officials what matters to you. With every action you take, you’re helping to fight hunger and build the momentum needed to create meaningful change.

Campaigning is a key part of our work in the UK, and includes:

  • launching petitions and letter-writing campaigns
  • holding in-person demonstrations in and around Westminster
  • organising meetings between our supporters and members of parliament.

And behind the scenes, our advocacy team is making sure your voice is heard.

Campaign with us and make a life-saving difference to those facing life-threatening hunger.

Hunger should never be used as a weapon of war

International Humanitarian Law already prohibits the use of hunger as a weapon of war. But it must be upheld. The UK has an important role to play in making sure no one goes hungry because of conflict.

How we're making a difference

Conflict

South Sudanese refugees supported by an Action Against Hunger member of staff to tackle food insecurity caused by conflict.

Armed conflict is the biggest single cause of hunger in the world today. In the worst-case scenarios, people can starve. Our teams and partners work in the world's most dangerous places to reach people in need.

Climate crisis

Gai tries to spear fish after his village in South Sudan is flooded, showing resilience in the face of hunger caused by climate change.

Rising temperatures and extreme weather are having a huge impact on people who already live in some of the toughest places on earth. We're helping communities prepare for crises and build resilience – and we're ready to step in with emergency help when needed.

Nutrition

A well-nourished, healthy, thriving person is good for their family and their community. We prevent, detect and treat malnutrition. We test innovative approaches so that everyone affected by hunger can receive the care they need.
